Barely cover it with water, and let it cook slowly until the water has almost evaporated. ‘Then, having prepared the. carrots and the sauce as for the carrot fricassee, add to it a well. beaten egg, stirring vigorously mean- while; then add the celery and its broth and the carrots.

Mental sctivity does not mar the roots of the hair, but neglect of the scalp does. To frank, most men are too lazy to rub disease out and health in. They ‘wear a stiff brimmed hat which limits the circulation of blood and the hair cannot get its normal supply—its daily nourishment. Every bald head needs rubbing, and persistent, steady rubbing at that, to be pushed out of the billiard-ball class. A medical authority says: “In the first place, a scalp massage should be maintained for at least 15 minutes and better 30. This takes times‘and mus- cle, and most men had much rather egg has been added, finally adding a|be bald than devote that much time little Dbutter. Green 'tomatoes fried with onions are very good and can be cerved as you would serve fried onions. All fruits should be closely observed for traces isonous insecticides. Growers are not always careful to re- move all traces of sprays before mar- keting their fruit. Houcokeepers can protect themselves from danger from this source by washing all fruit in coveral waters before serving it. It would be advisable and insure greater safety to wash the fruit before placing it in the storeroom or ice chest. In these days of mysterious cases of poisoning one cannot be too care- ful in preparing food for the !{?!hle. THE MEETING WITH DOTTIE. Social, Corner Club No. 2 met on ‘Wednesday, July 14th, with Dottie, at her pleasant home and all had their usual good time. No dull moments where there is a Social Cornerite. The hostess met us with her ready smile and made us all welcome. Greet- ings were exchanged among the var- ious members and some of the very industrious ones brought their work with them. After the usual intercourse of witty stories, (and say, nothing can beat a Social Corner story when .they get the trees, where the cool breezes made it an ideal. place for the gathering.

And we have a sneaking suspicion that it is most ef- ficacious when done by the victim him- self, for generally he needs the exer- cise as well as the massage, which, after all, is passive exercise. “In ng the scalp some emol- lient should be used on the finger tips, and for this sulphur cream is excel- lent, especially when there is dandruff. “Place both palms flat on the scalp with finger 'tips about an inch apart. Then shove the hands toward each other so that a fold of scalp is heaped up in a roll between the finger tips. Repedt this maneuver all over the scalp, and presently a feeling of warmth will tell you that real, live biood is once more entering the fcrbid- den area and treating the poor, starved hair follicles to a veritable feast of nourishment.” I wonder if there is a sister among you who can her baldheaded mate devote a half hour three times a week upon his head for love of her.

GREETINGS FROM SILENT PART- 4t NER. o 1 Dear Soclal Corner Friends:—I want to thank the Editor for the fine poem 3% ‘The World Goes.” I I have been trying to finish a belated houge cleaning. : When the measles were prevalent I had three cases on my hands, and afterwards had hard attack of grippe, which: left me feeling so mis erable, that the housecleaning wait. ‘T washed all*the ago, don’t think ik 1 hav Plain N | the aamage they did, family held ut;éu- breath in silence, as lemanded that the church committee should give their reason for asking their pastor to re- Before leaving, Deacon Flin if something, they knew not whbat, was | the b taking place, for the controversy which they heard bewildered them.

The wife and children rushed to the windows, but the large auto was gone, carrying the head of the house in it.

The burglars had fled, but a num- | After going through the preliminarit ber of people had assembied. Deacon Flint, with a twinkle in his eye, remarked that he was much sur- prised to see that his pastor was a sus- Several others joined in, and one man said “Those policemen were smart men to catch the culprit before they vieweqd the premises.” Rev, Mr. Colby, e jolly man, laughed over the affair, but did not explain why he was with the officers, who after cearching the house, and failing to find any clue to aid them in pursu- ing the housebreakers, joined the min- ister and soon were en route for home. In the meantime the minutes and then an hour passed by, and the anx- lous wife still stood by the window, watching and probably praying that her husband would safely return. Af- ter two hours had passed she decided he nad been kidnapped and had donned her coat and hat to go to secure help from a neighbor when Mr. Colby en- tered the hall. She rushed out with outstretched arms to greet him and between her sobe she cried: “Thank God, Frank, you have not been ctolen from me!™ ‘The minister looked surprised for a moment and then exclalmed: “Why! Oh, my, Clara! Did you think I was stolen? You are worse than Deacon Flint, for he was not serious when +he joked me about my ride to Mr. Stoddard’s house, which has been broken into.’ ‘The wife, though soothed, still felt that trouble would arise from the ad- venture, and said: “Oh, dear! 1 do hope that no one who saw you there, or going and re- ;urniug, will think seriously of the af- air ™ Her husband laughed and replied: ;-ll:ih'? Joke would be on them if they The Inferences which were drawn by ths persons who heard of the burglary and of the minister's ride with the policemen did indeed prove disastrous, for ere long the pastor and wife no- ticed that instead of hearty greetings they received indifferent bows and cold, baughty stares from many peo- ple in the town, some of whom were their parishioners. They perceived whenever they were present the peo- ple clustered together in groups, whis- pering to each other. The words shut, those foolish idiots would never have thought of such a preposterous charge. Now they will not listen to me, or to those who belisve the charge to have sprung from the jokes. You, you alone, parson, can stop them, and T hope you will do so tomorrow afternoon.” The meeting was well attended by nearly every member, consisting of those who believed in the charges and of those who did not. It was cpened with a prayer from one of the deacons. es the chairman of the church commit- tee addressed Rev. Mr. Colby, saying: “1 wish you to understand I am laying aside my personal dislike against this assigned task, but as chairman of the church committee and because it is my solemn duty to carry out the lJaws of this church and com- mittes, 1 address you thus: “Because you failed to give any ex- planation concerning the circumstan- tial evidence regarding the reason of your accompanying the policemen on the evening when the burglary was committed at Mr. Stoddard’'s house, they have detailed me to notify you that at a recent church conference the majority church members present vot- ed that you be asked to resign. Rev. Mr. Colby, who had stood while he was being addressed, replied: “I now declare that my services as pastor of the Congregational church of Fayette are concluded, and the tles that bound us together are now sev- ered. I will suggest right here that ‘when you have another pastor, and eir- cumstantial evidence and appearances are strong against him, that you talk it over with him and hear his story before appointing private church meet- ings and arraigning him on simple gos- sip. Appearances are often deceitful, as in my case, for your new minister, like myself, might also ride with offi- cers of the law to show them the way, and they, because of his kindness to them, would not permit him to walk home. May God bless you always, my friends.” Mr. Colby’s explanation stunned the people. and before they rallied he and his wife had left the church. A delegation to ask him to withdraw his resignation followed him, but Mr. Colby felt that the people’s lesson would not be perfectly learned if he recalled it. So, owing to a few gossip- ers and busybodies, who persisted in moulding jokes into actual facts, their church was left without a shepherd. “Temper not with idle rumor, iest the truth appear to lie, Carve thy life to hilted silence, wrong shall fall on it, and die; Tamper not with acéusation, harvest not what thou hast heard, Christ stood in the court of Pilate, but he answered not a word.” DIANA. —_—— CONUNDRUMS FROM POLLYANNA. Dear Social Corner Sisters:—I send a few lines this week. x I was so sorry to miss the picnmic at the lake. I had planned to attend and meet some of the sisters, but I was obliged to give it up. Hope for better luck next time. Ready You are hearing from me at last. Aunt Sarah: Yes, I went home from the picaic in an automobile.

Editor of tke Social Corner: There may be a few housewives of years of experience who do not know as much about water as they should from their deily use of it for years. We have in use in the kitchen cold water and warm water, hot water and burnt water, to say nothing of dead water. More dead water is used in the kitchen than should be ,and when hot water is prescribed by a doctor burnt or dead water is used instead of live hot water. ‘Water that has been standing hot in the tea-kettle for hours, and, perhaps, been rebolled, Goes not make good tea or coffee, or a palatable drink of any kind. Tea and coffee to be first class should be brewed in fresh water that has never been boiled before, and because convenient stale hot water that may have been standing long on the fire is used the flavor is not what it should be. .

Dear Editor and Social Corner Sis- ters:—This week I am going to try and please some of the Sisters who live in the country, who do not live near soda fountains. I would like to have some of the Sisters try some of these and let me know. Raspberryade—Mash one pint of raspberries; add the juice of one lemon. Then add enough water to make two quarts and sweeten to taste. Place by the ice to chill. Just before serving strain either through a fine wire strainer or a cloth. Currantade—Crush one quart of red currants, add two quarts of water and strain through a cloth. Sweeten to taste and let stand by the ice two hours before serving. Pineapple Lemonads—Cook one cup of water and sugar together until the syrup will thread, being careful not to stir after the sugar is dissolved; add one cup of freshly grated pineapple and the juice of two lemons, Dilute wit water, Cold Cocoa—Take six heaping table- spoons of cocoa and nine teaspoons of granulated sugar; mix well together; add one cup of boili ‘water and rub to paste. Then pour four cups of hot water and boil carefully five minutes. Set away in ice-box to cool, stir or shake well before serving. This makes a fine summer drink. Best wishes. LITTLE DAISY OF CANTERBURY. COLD SORES AND SKIN DISEASES. Editor Social Corne: know when to call the doctor and when not to, practicé a protective economy of more than ordinary value. Living in the country, far from med- ical assistance, makes it necessary to know how to treat simple troubles, and it not only prevents = suffering, but saves good money. ‘The things called fever blisters or cold sores, are not only quite pain- ful, but very disfiguring. They quite as often come, like canker sores, from a disordered stomach as from cold, I think. Charcoal Tablets will quickly correct the ‘stomach trouble. Teke four just before a meal and five right after it. Chew them quickly and wash down with a full glass of cold water. For this disfiguring labial affection there is no remedy better than bathing several times a day with a boric acid solution—one teaspoonful of boric acid dissolved in a tumbler- ful of hot water. At bedtime the crusts may be dusted with dry boric acid. Children having cold sores are disposed to pick the lip with the fingers—this procedure may infect the sore. It always delays the heal ing.

Keep & sharp eye upon them and trail them to their nest, which may be destroyed ‘with ‘hot water, kerosene or gasoline. Or the ant colonies may be destroyed by pouring an ounce of carbon bisul- phide in a saucer, setting it down quickly beside the nest entrance and covering all with a tight tub. Throw dirt around the edges of the tub to make it tight. Do not let sparks, pipe or any kind of fire near the carbon bisulphide. It is highly inflammable and will explode. The liquid carbon bisulphide evaporates quickly and its gas, being heavier than air, penetrateg the nest and asphyxiates the insects. It takes time and persistence to make an end of them, but their ab- sence gives a sense of satisfaction which fully compensates anyone for all . the trouble taken to annihilats them. [ MARY JANE. AT THE DOCTOR'S PICNIC. Dear Social Corner Sisters:— I had a delightful time reading about your picnic at Coventry Lake and know you all rsust have had a good time. I am certain I had the time of my life at the Doctor’s picnic, meeting there many dear friends I knew long before The Social Corner was ever thought of, and to meet them at the picnic was a great pleasure and sur- rise. Lucinda: How are you? I like my two new pen names very much. Fleur de Lis: Huckleberry was quite lonely that night being taken 2way from the other thirty-five babies, but did not keep me awake that night and looks harpy and contented in her new home. Thanks for Doctor's ad- vice in caring for her. Aunt Abbie: How are the twins? Hope you have fully recovered from the surprise. Crimson Rambler: Will you please send 'n Club No. 2's yell. It was too good tq be lost. Hulda: How is the baby? the pictures were good? Auntie No. 1: Hope you have a good day for your picnic and none of the showers such as T was out in this afternoon. Jim: Why was you not at Doctor's picnic I saw you at Harland's cor- ner with others Saturday morning. Wondered if you were going down the river, you all looked so happy. Blue Bells said perhaps you were going ta order grain for those pigs, and was so glad to hear from you she would like to hear from you n.
